India, April 5 -- Royal Challengers Bengaluru are in action today for the second time this season in the Indian Premier League (IPL), and it's the southern derby they are featuring in, against five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

RCB had their first game on March 28 comfortably against Sunrisers Hyderabad, and they again go into Sunday's evening contest as red-hot favourites. CSK, on the other hand, have lost both of their matches so far, against Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings. It may be noted that they are without the services of the legendary MS Dhoni, who is out of the first few matches on account of a calf injury. CSK, if not his batting, has definitely missed his experience and guidance.

Ahea...
